Brazos County officials continue to assess damage from the April 8th hail storm that took place almost three weeks ago. During the April 20 county commission meeting, risk manager Leslie Contreras said temporary roof repairs were made to keep water out of the administration, I-T, and health district buildings. Contreras says the Brazos County Expo was hit pretty hard. And 111 county vehicles were damaged. 54 were insured, and 18 of the remaining 57 require replacing windshields and windows.

Two of several College Station ISD buildings damaged during the April 8th hailstorm sustained additional damage last week, following three to five inches of rain. CSISD school board members held an emergency meeting on Tuesday and approved a $371,000 dollar no-bid contract to make temporary repairs at Southwood Village elementary and Oakwood middle schools. Board members were told the expense, which will be paid from CSISD’s general fund, will be applied toward the district’s insurance, and more repairs are expected to be made.
